Hello all,

Im currently on the fence as far as my career choices im a disabled navy vet separated back in 24 and since then went into the electrician trade since i was an electronics technician in the navy and grew from a blue collar background prior to my service (general labor etc.) I have since quit my apprenticeship about a year into it and have since been using my VA benefits to go to community college to knock out my gen ed’s and prepare to pursue electrical engineering in hopes to get into defense or energy sector. Im not gonna lie its been forever since i graduated HS (2016) and going back into school has been rough leading into calculus. I wanted to know what has been some academic struggles y’all have had and if its worth it long term. Still trying to figure out if i want EE or MechE but given my background im hoping to someday become an electrical engineer. Id love any input or advice thanks for y’all’s time!
